 * Hi,
 * First of all, many thanks for creating this beautiful theme.
 * How can I fix max width in the footy area?
 * Older posts and newer posts buttons seem too far away in my imac.
    Also, google
   adsense in the footy area seems to be too much wide.
 * I understood responsive design is great. But I want to limit the maximum width.
 * Many thanks.
 * My blog is seoworld.net

 * In brief, my questions are…
 * (1) How can I remove ‘Posted in Uncategorized’ in the bottom of the post, as 
   a entry meta?
 * (2) How can I fit the max width of the footy area just as like 680 px in the 
   body?
 * Help me!!!!

 * Firstly, on removing the category stuff, you can use this CSS
 *     ```
       .entry-meta .cat-links {
           display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * #colophon has 80px of top and bottom padding (above and below your ad). You can
   adjust that with the following. There is also a max width of 80% set for #colophon.
 *     ```
       #colophon {
           padding: 80px 0;
       }
       ```
   
 * On the width, the max width for #main and #masthead is set at 80%, as is #colophon(
   the footer area) so it matches the other main container elements in your theme.
   You can use the following CSS and limit everything to a maximum pixel value if
   you desire.
 *     ```
       #main, #masthead, #colophon {
           max-width: 950px;
           padding-left: 20px;
           padding-right: 20px;
       }
       ```

 * Hmmm, they have a different set up on the blog. We can dump the category stuff,
   but it will take the permalink with it.
 *     ```
       .cat-list {
           display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * If you do not want to get rid of the permalink, you will have to make a change
   to `content-single.php` and add a new span around the permalink stuff and then
   add a CSS class to it so that you can target only the category links. If you 
   have not yet done so, I would suggest creating a child theme so that any customizations
   you make will not be overwritten by a future theme update.
